- A 90 day window, well past the 30 day median across programmes
- Joined directly with Kash Marketplace, with no intermediary network in the chain
Cons
- Commission is limited to 5% of plan payments and sale fees, lower than the 25-30% recurring for 12 months and 25% to 35% recurring for 12 months on offer nearby
- Payouts are a monthly manual payout, so balances sit until the next cycle
- The programme sits in retail only, which narrows the audiences you can write for
